     1.7 +===== Custom SHell =====
     1.8 +
     1.9 +SliTaz uses the ash shell linked to sh provided by busybox. Ash is light, fast and standards compliant. To change the default shell for a user you can edit the /etc/passwd file using the corresponding line. After you login, /etc/profile is read first and then the user file ~/profile. You can edit these files with a text editor to configure the language, any aliases, etc.
